Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Older theories of the state largely considered the latter in the context of nation-building, as a ‘super’ ethnic group. Yet, processes of globalization, and particularly though not exclusively of migration, as well as different approaches invite for considering the state within new frameworks of analysis.
Methodological aspects:
a) Students centred; strongly interactive
b) Training in writing scholarly papers
c) Training in presentation of findings.
